FBI officials met with House Oversight Committee staff Monday, but did not produce the subpoenaed unclassified record by Chairman James Comer allegedly linking Joe Biden to a cash-for-access ‘criminal scheme.’
As a result, a committee aide told DailyMail.com that Comer is expected to announce next steps ‘soon.’
The meeting Monday comes after House Speaker Kevin McCarthy said the FBI is poised to hand over the potentially damning document after he spoke with FBI Director Chris Wray.
‘I wanted to be clear with the FBI director,’ McCarthy told Fox News‘ Maria Bartiromo Sunday.
He confirmed that he held a phone call with Wray, adding ‘Congress has a right, and we have the jurisdiction, to oversee the FBI.’
‘I explained to the director that we will do everything in our power, and [that] we have jurisdiction over the FBI – that we have the right to see this document,’ McCarthy continued.
‘I believe, after this call, we will get this document.’
Comer and Sen. Chuck Grassley wrote to Wray in a Friday evening letter marking nine days since the deadline passed, calling it ‘unacceptable.’
‘The FBI’s credibility is on the line, and their continued failure to cooperate will have long lasting consequences,’ Grassley said.
The FBI missed a noon deadline on Wednesday, May 10 to provide the document, angering Republicans who said FBI Director Chris Wray may face ‘consequences.’
